End of tenancy cleaning cost in London 2026
We publish all of our end of tenancy cleaning prices on our website. As you might notice, the prices are higher in London than elsewhere in the UK. However, if you’re a resident of London, you’re probably used to this by now!
There are numerous factors that impact our end of tenancy cleaning cost in London and the UK. Here’s another table comparing the differences in price, which we’ll explain in more detail below.
Factors affecting cleaning cost
Cleaning Express is proud of its transparency in pricing. With this in mind, here’s an explanation of how we calculate your quote for end of tenancy cleaning services.
Location
Different parts of the UK have different prices, which is typically linked to the local infrastructure. In London, for example, the prices are lower than the UK average for cleaning smaller properties because many of the cleaners have to arrange their own personal transport, such as a car, so that they can get to the cleaning site. However, in London, end of tenancy cleaners can arrive to your property easily and for very cheap via public transport, which allows for smaller upfront costs in London, however costs tend to shoot up in London for larger properties due to higher hourly rates in line with the London Living Wage.
Property size
Unsurprisingly, larger properties cost more to clean! The cheapest type of property on our list is a one-bedroom studio flat, with larger properties getting incrementally more expensive. Also for London, we can see that prices are usually higher than the UK average for properties with 3 bedrooms and above, which is mainly coming from the compounding of higher wages in London following the London living wage.
That said, we’ll always provide you with a quote before we start work. We’re happy to explain it in detail for you and the impact that more rooms (and possibly more cleaners) will have.
Pets
We charge more for rental properties that have had pets living in them. As any pet owner will know, fur gets everywhere and takes longer to clean. We also do our best to minimise the level of pet-related allergens in the property. While we can’t guarantee it’ll be completely allergen free, we’ll certainly do our best to cut down levels of fur and dander.
Add-on services
On top of our standard end of tenancy cleaning package, we offer additional services, such as carpet cleaning. These will incur extra charges, but you’ll know the total cost before we start work. If you’d like any additional services, just let us know and we can discuss it further.
